Huawei Mate 10 review

A bargain of a flagship

Premium design ; Quality camera ; Powerful chipset

No real waterproofing ; EMUI not for everyone ; No wireless charging

The Huawei Mate 10 is a big phone with an excellent camera, striking design and plenty of power under the hood. Given its size, it won’t be for everyone, but with very few shortcomings it’s a definite contender for best value for money big phone of 2017.

Huawei Mate 10 Smartphone Review

One of the last ones of its kind. With their XXL-sized smartphone Mate 10, the Chinese manufacturer Huawei bucks the current trend towards displays with a 2:1-aspect ratio. How does the high-end phablet fare and is an import worth it?

outstanding design & feels great to the touch ; very good IPS panel ; QHD resolution (16:9) ; doesn't get very hot ; great run times ; outstanding performance

The Huawei Mate 10 is an outstanding smartphone. The few minor quibbles – the (in our case at least) wobbly volume rocker switch, the lack of an IP 67 certification, the context-based brightness adjustment, the post-processing of the photos – do not...

Huawei Mate 10

Huawei Mate 10 review, price, release date, specs and price. It's not coming to the UK, but how good does the Huawei Mate 10 look?

Takes good pictures in low light ; Great performance ; Very good battery life

EMUI software is a pain

Despite Huawei’s constant marketing spam about the greatness of its ‘co-engineered with Leica’ dual-lens cameras, I’ve always found them to be good; not great. Which is why I didn’t put much stock into Huawei’s pre-release claims about the Mate 10’s...

Huawei gets the design, camera, screen, and battery exactly right on the Mate 10 Pro, while the NPU and AI smarts show promise for the future. It’s an exceptional all-round smartphone package we highly recommend.

Huawei Mate 10 review

It's hard out here for Huawei. The Chinese company is responsible for many great phones, but it's rarely given its due credit. Whether or not the Mate 10 changes this can't be predicted, but Huawei has done its part: The Mate 10 is a standout phone,...

Huawei’s Mate 10 gives you performance and cameras comparable to Samsung’s Galaxy Note 8 and Google’s Pixel XL 2, but for several hundred bucks less. It also has a headphone jack.

The phone’s battery doesn’t last as long as the Mate 10 Pro despite being the same size. Huawei’s Android software could be smoother and the phone isn’t getting an official release in the US or UK.

The Huawei Mate 10 may be hard for you to get your hands on, but it’s worth the effort if you want a big-screen phone and don’t quite have the budget for a Galaxy Note, iPhone Plus or Pixel 2.

With great battery life, cameras and utterly gorgeous design, the Mate 10 Pro in particular is a fantastic phone

Attractive design ; Great battery life ; Excellent camera

No 3.5mm headphone jack (on the Pro)

Whatever your priorities, though, you’ll find the Mate 10 Pro a competitive, competent smartphone that’s been put together with a huge amount of care and attention. It’s a very good smartphone indeed, and well worth a Best Buy award.

Huawei Mate 10 review: Warning, highly addictive

Huawei introduced three models to its phablet mate series this year. There's the Mate 10, a more than worthy successor to the Mate 9 , and then there's the Mate 10 Pro and Mate 10 Porsche Edition. All three offer similar performance, although the Mate...

The camera ; The battery ; Performance ; Very thin frame ; Can be used like a computer

Quite wide ; Heavy and slippery ; Only IP53 ; Bluetooth 4.2

The Huawei Mate 10 offers almost the same impressive features as the Pro variant: the latest Kirin processor equipped with artificial intelligence, an impressive camera, the latest version of Android and the ability to use it as a real computer.
